Preorder Dungeons & Dragons Ravenloft: The Horrors Within Expansion
As someone who loves both horror and D&D, I think this looks like a delightfully creepy new adventure to embark on. The expansion book highlights 16 Domains of Dread, 17 Darklords with their own stat blocks, new subclasses, and Dark Gift feats that players have to look forward to.
The map pack comes with 10 horror-themed battle maps to create a thrilling journey as well, and the Tarokka deck can show you what the future holds – whether that be run-ins with a Darklord or brand new Domains of Dread. Of course, all of these feature astonishing artwork as well. I mean, for instance, how could you not love that portrait of Strahd on the cover of the expansion book? I think it’s excellent.
This new expansion is part of Dungeons & Dragon’s Season of Horror, which kicked off this month and runs until June as part of D&D’s new themed seasonal content updates. Some familiar voices will be taking on this expansion soon as well.
Baldur’s Gate 3’s Neil Newbon and Devora Wilde – alongside DesiQuest’s Jasmine Bhullar, Dispatch’s Mayanna Berrin and 13 Reasons Why’s Christian Navarro – will be playing through Ravenloft: The Horrors Within as part of the new D&D “actual play” show, Dungeon Masters. If you’re curious to see what the new expansion is like, this seems like a great way to experience it through some very familiar voices.
